It's That Time Again!

     During the next few months, there may be days when weather conditions make it unsafe for staff, volunteers, and participants at the Center to be on the roads. Please listen to your radio or watch your TV for school closing announcements. Usually, when the  Hartford School District schools are closed due to weather         conditions, the Bugbee Senior Center will also be closed and there will be no home-delivered meals. When this is not the case, there will be an announcement on the radio as to when the Bugbee Senior Center will open.
     Our website, www.bugbeecenter.org carries up-to-date weather information and a link to  weather.com.
     If you are in doubt, you can try calling the Center
after 8:30 AM. When possible, we will try to leave an up-to-date message on our telephone answering machine.
(Our answering machine does not take messages.)
